Merry Christmas & a Happy New Year!

Please note that the office is closed over the festive period.

All email enquiries are welcome, and will be dealt with on my return, including booking enquiries - I have some limited spaces for clients in January.

URGENT HELP over the FESTIVE PERIOD

Trauma Therapy by Trish does not provide URGENT helpline support at any time.

Over Christmas, people can experience many different emotions more deeply, including uncomfortable ones such as loneliness, grief and negative thoughts about themselves or life in general.

You can help people by;

  • Checking in on them
  • Not expecting them to meet your expectations
  • Making adjustments, such as time-outs, shorter visits, quiet zones etc
  • Not judging them or trying to fix them
  • Asking how you can help
  • Signposting them to support services

What's New?

Anecdotal Testimony

This quote was seen some time ago on social media, the original source is unknown, but it has been shared by I CAN Network Ltd and The Lavender Librarian, I feel this latest testimony really shows how true this is.

I recently saw a parent of a former teenage client - both of whom had given reviews after the 12 week programme - they shared with me something their child had anecdotally said in conversation over 2 years after completing their work with me;

"I would not have got through the last two years of school if it had not been for the therapy I had first."

LGBTQ+ Safe Space

I am pleased to announce Trauma Therapy by Trish is registered with the Safe Space Alliance, as an LGBTQ+ friendly and safe service.

Proud to be a Charity Trustee.

I am proud to be a Trustee for this local Coventry charity.  It is my way of giving back to my community.

You can help the charity in a number of ways including using their soft play centre and Party facilities.

We, like many other charities, are looking for additional trustees to help us (voluntary role) particularly if you have experience in finance, insurance or IT, and have a genuine interest in supporting disabled children.  Please get in touch to arrange a no-obligation chat.
